This your chance to make a lasting impression on your interviewer. Don’t squander it by not having a thoughtful question or two. It’s an opportunity to show your prospective employer that you can see a bigger picture beyond scribbled code on a whiteboard. That you care about the humans at the opposite end of the tech stack.

It’s also a chance to learn something about how your prospective employer operates. Maybe there’s some pain point you can help address, or a process gap you can help fill. Maybe you’ll see some patterns that indicate how happy or miserable you’ll be if you accept an offer.

• What’s your worst day like? How do you manage it?
• If you could change one thing about your tech stack, what would it be? What’s blocking you from implementing this change?

Essential reading: the “Shitty First Drafts” chapter of Anne Lamott’s Bird By Bird:

Almost all good writing begins with terrible first efforts. You need to start somewhere. Start by getting something — anything — down on paper. A friend of mine says that the first draft is the down draft — you just get it down. The second draft is the up draft — you fix it up.

The following will be a short explanation, along with some solutions, of a popular JavaScript question that tends to get asked in developer interviews.

This question deals with the topics: closures, setTimeout, and scoping.

The pistol squat takes balance, flexibility, mobility, and strength. It even helps with vertical explosivity when combined with jumping exercises. Also, quite importantly, it helps even out the imbalances between your legs. People typically have one leg that is stronger than the other and/or one leg that is more flexible than the other—the pistol squat helps to address this imbalance.

What are user flows and why you need to use them. An illustrated guide on going from “WTF, am I looking at”, to a clear design of how your app works.
All together now!
Let’s say you’re a billionaire and want to use your massive marketing and PR team to come across as a bored polymath who funds his crazy ideas with novel products like roofing torches. WTF!? Say it with me: what’s the flows?

Forearm stretches can feel great as well, and Pavel’s book Super Joints is a very good option. It could be as simple as going on your hands and knees and walking your hands to the outside and back until your fingers are pointing at your knees. From here, shift your weight to the rear while keeping the heels of your hands on the floor.

So, what features does a neural network ACTUALLY learn?
I had no clue about the answer or how to find it until 3blue1brown released a set of videos about neural networks. It was Grant Sanderson’s take at explaining the subject to newcomers. Maybe even he felt that there were some missing pieces in the explanation by other people and that he could address them in his tutorials.

1. The grass is never greener.
2. There are mediocre people everywhere we go.
3. The need for a side hustle.
4. Once we understand people, we’re set.
   People go through a range of emotions every day. Once we understand that what’s happening in business could be entirely down to the fact they’re human, and nothing to do with business, we see the business landscape differently.

Exercise 1: Negative Space — see what is NOT there

Exercise 5: Depth — see overlaps (plant)

Becoming evolved means:
You no longer major in minor things — As Jim Rohn said, “A lot of people don’t do well simply because they major in minor things.”

You value your time — and how that time is spent. When you’re at work, you’re 100% at work. When you’re at home, you’re 100% at home. You begin living in the “results-economy,” where you’re less worried about how long something takes you, and you’re more concerned about achieving the your desired results more effectively and efficiently.

Observe. Journal. Connect. Write.
This is my go-to formula for daily blog posts. It works like this.
Observe the behavior, conversations and events around you. Jot down the highlights throughout the day. At night, record ten to twelve of these in your journal. Pick out two or three entries that interest you. Ask yourself these questions.

1. What did you learn from this?
2. What does it prove or disprove?
3. What connections can you draw between this event and life, work or area of expertise?

There’s no area of your life that’s separate from the others. Your health will impact your work. Your work will impact your relationships. Your relationships will impact your happiness.

User Preference of Error Message Locations

Users rated which error message location they found most satisfying. There was a strong user preference and expectation for right of the field placement.
